There's something wrong
'Cause you seem mighty low
Tell me what's going on
[?]
Sit up and fix your face
You see me and I'm okay
We ain't got no time a day
Throw on your darker shades and
Smile for the camera
I want you to know
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
Keep it off
I see you holding on
But it was easy, no?
Now you feel all alone
Quit playing issues babe
Don't be here either way
No other place to play
So put your make up on and smile in the mirror
I just want you to know
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
Your inner strength is the reason you haven't said a word
But your counting has revealed the bad days that you've endured
It's probably not the first and not the last to be a**ure
The past is leading the future, I promise the present is keeping us moving forward
With hope we seek through happiness, throughout our lives
With trials we face bring pain and sorrow, but we'll resistance is [?] strength
The easy path rarely leads to what our heart truly desires
And in this life we must face may a worthy challenge with an outcome that may satisfy us
The win inspite of struggle implies much greater magnification
To ones honour which I value more than instant-gratification
So believe me when I say that time can heal almost anyone
And ease the most pain, yet the scars remain until we lay in tomb
So please know nothing in this moment is the same as a moment ago, each one day pa** [?]
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that) that it gets better with time
(I just hope that you know that that it gets...)
Tomorrow's not in your hands
That's why I pray to the man
And nothings ever gets to make plans in advance
One day at a time
I burn the saints for all the negative paid no mind
I'm at ease with the struggles they're better with time
Need not remind
Tomorrow's not in your hands
Neither is control
n***a, reap what you sow
And pay it in full
Think before you burn the bridge
Paying the toll
Just play your role
So much pressure in the world I started my gnashing teeth
Hit the gas so hard I blew a gas and leak
Drank me for what I got like a nasty leech
You'll find hard earned lesson just by asking a teach'
Life is what you make it, take it how you gon' take it
My ground is solid and no earthquake could not shake it
Ain't waiting on no nothing not no reparations, heavily meditating
But it gets better with time, I'm sober now, no alcohol to hide behind
I grow older and grow bolder
I move mountains and move boulders
I cross borders, don't take orders
And thank god that's important
